Single-chain glycopolymer folding via host-guest interactions and its unprecedented effect on DC-SIGN binding [PDF]

, 2018
Reversible self-folding actions of natural biomacromolecules play crucial roles for specific and unique biological functions in Nature. Hence, controlled folding of single polymer chains has attracted significant attention in recent years.

Expression and characterization of recombinant chicken mannose binding lectin

Immunobiology, 2017
Mannose binding lectin (MBL) is a serum collagenous C-type lectin that plays an important role in the innate immune protection against pathogens. Previously, human and mouse studies have demonstrated that MBL binds a broad range of pathogens that results in their neutralization through agglutination, enhanced phagocytosis, and/or complement activation ...

CRISPR/Cas9‐Mediated Knockouts of the ALG3 and GNTI in N. benthamiana and Their Application to Pharmaceutical Production

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT N‐Glycosylation critically influences the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic properties of biopharmaceuticals. Plant expression platforms offer multiple advantages for the production of N‐glycosylated proteins, but their use is impeded by the presence of plant‐specific N‐glycan epitopes, which raise concerns of possible immunogenicity to ...

Targets for the diagnosis of Acanthamoeba eye infections include four cyst wall proteins and the mannose-binding domain of the trophozoite mannose-binding protein

mSphere
Acanthamoebae, which are free-living amoebae, cause corneal inflammation (keratitis) and blindness, if not quickly diagnosed and effectively treated.

pH-Degradable mannosylated nanogels for dendritic cell targeting [PDF]

, 2016
We report on the design of glycosylated nanogels via core-cross linking of amphiphilic non-water-soluble block copolymers composed of an acetylated glycosylated block and a pentafluorophenyl (PFP) activated ester block prepared by reversible addition ...

Transcript correlation analysis for the identification of novel plant genes involved in iron metabolism and beyond: what next?

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Transcript correlation analysis allowed the identification of several key nodes in the complex regulatory network of plant iron metabolism. Abstract Arabidopsis thaliana was the first plant genome to be fully sequenced, almost a quarter of a century ago, thanks to The Arabidopsis Genome Initiative, with contributions from scientists worldwide.

Structural and biochemical characterization of a new type of lectin isolated from carp eggs. [PDF]

, 2003
A previously unidentified glycoprotein present in the eggs of the carp (Cyprinus carpio) was isolated and structurally characterized. The protein binds to a Sepharose 4B matrix and can be eluted with 0.4 M N-acetylglucosamine. The protein has an apparent

Histiocytes: Multifaceted Regulators of Health and Disease

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The mononuclear phagocyte system encompasses macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and monocytes. Tissue‐resident macrophages and dendritic cells arise during embryogenesis and are replenished either through self‐renewal or by monocytes during inflammation.
